    Display it the other way up, the reverse is the best bit anyway. I'm with the likers.
  2. mrbadexample
    T'riffic.

    I hadn't spotted that Pete, I was focusing on the V for U in GEORGIVS.
  4. mrbadexample
    Think I read somewhere recently that it's since about 1280 or so. Could be wrong mind.

    This is about the best I can get of the reverse.
  7. mrbadexample
    Well spotted.

    I bought this because I liked the die clash. Obvious on the obverse, particularly prominent between the neck and the ribbon. These are the seller's pictures. Having the coin in hand and a loupe, on the reverse leading up from Britannia's knee I can see (not visible on the photos, sorry) the whole of Victoria's profile. It's clashtastic.
  10. mrbadexample
    Yes, I thought it seemed a bit odd.

    The other two appear to me to be either ¼, ½ or 1 Memduhiye Altin, depending on weight. The one on the left looks to be regnal year 2, the one on the right, 1.
  12. mrbadexample
    Think the regnal year on the top one is 21. My punt would be at Ottoman Empire 100 kurush, KM#730. The weight should help.
  13. mrbadexample
    Sorry Pete, I expect all the gold's been bought by now.
  14. mrbadexample
    But that's where you'd do it, isn't it? You'd just nick a bit off the edge rather than the middle. Well, I would, anyway.
  15. mrbadexample
    It certainly is. Even though I suggested a die clash I couldn't quite make it fit, but the rotation explains it nicely.
  16. mrbadexample
    Looks like a die clash to me. Top of Britannia's legs?
  17. mrbadexample
    So the rest of us might have half a chance now?
  18. mrbadexample
    If it was me I'd be having a refund regardless of the outlay. If I buy a coin I want the one pictured.
  19. mrbadexample
    That would be nice Pete, pop them in next time I buy one of your pennies? I'll keep an eye out for any nice ones I see. Don't send them now, I'm in Dubrovnik.
  20. mrbadexample
    Still a pattern left in the Copthorne Pete.
  21. mrbadexample
    1826 halfpenny.

    The one place I didn't expect to get a Cardiff and complete my set was at the Midland Coin Fair. Given to me in change by a dealer who had trays of them for sale.
  23. mrbadexample
    Who are you Pete? How come you get first crack at EVERYTHING?
  24. mrbadexample
    I don't like the new colours. Far too bright and cheerful.
  25. mrbadexample
    Oh. Well why didn't you say that in the first place?
